This is Christian Eve. This is the night of all nights to thank Messiah. The baby of Bethlehem is our mighty God. He offers the gift of salvation to any who will accept it. Let us bow our heads, bend our knees, and rejoice!
Are you ready for Christmas? That's the question on everyone's lips during this season of celebration. Usually, it evokes a flurry of images: shopping lists, crowded malls, tinsel decorations, trays of decorated cookies, and strings of sparkling lights. But there's another aspect to that question. A deeper meaning. One we too often forget to address. Maybe the more appropiate question would be: Is Your Heart Ready for Christmas? What better way to prepare your heart for Christmas than to spend a moment each day of the Advent season in quiet reflection about the incarnation of the Savior whose birth we celebrate? Authors Donna W. Payne and Fran Lenzo offer this fresh and friendly collection of Advent devotional readings featuring the Scripture texts used to create Handel's Messiah. And each reading begins with an entertaining story that tells the amazing facts behind the symbols of Christmas. Find out about angels, swaddling clothes, gold, frankincense, myrrh, carols, magi, and more! In just moments each day, you and evey member of your family (from the youngest to the oldest) will come to a new appreciation of teh rich meaning behind the lyrics of this God.directed classic. The culmination of this volume of 28 readings is teh Christmas Eve entry, a thought-provoking treatment of the Hallelujah Chorus titled "Why the King Stood Up." There is no better way to prepare your family to stand in awe before His manger and kneel in worship befor His cross than to join the choir on the companion CD and sing wholeheartedly: "I can't think of a better way to approach the joy of Christmas than that which is offered to us in "The Handel's Messiah Family Advent Reader.' It craves a path that cuts through all the consumerism of the Christmas season and prepares a family to experience the true meaning of the birth of Jesus." |
